The harbour is located at the sheltered entrance to the Ness chiefly on the east bank of the river and which expanded throughout the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. Further expansion of the harbour took place in 1985 with the construction opposite Thornbush Quay of the 600 ft long Longman Quay (land reclamation)
